SPAIN star Jenni Hermoso was spotted making an X-rated gesture towards England ace Chloe Kelly during today’s World Cup final.
Hermoso, 33, was a key figure as Spain beat the Lionesses 1-0 in Sydney.
As England chased an equaliser in the second half, the match got more frantic.
Manchester City star Kelly was introduced as a half-time substitute by boss Sarina Wiegman.
During the second 45, the hero of last year’s Euro 2022 final was spotted appearing to be sworn at by Hermoso.
Spain’s No10 was pictured raising her middle finger in Kelly’s direction.
